Bishop said that conversation with Lowell left her feeling \"picked up again to the proper table-land of poetry,\" and she once begged him, \"Please never stop writing me letters--they always manage to make me feel like my higher self (I've been re-reading Emerson) for several days.\" Neither ever stopped writing letters, from their first meeting in 1947 when both were young, newly launched poets until Lowell's death in 1977. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Presented in \u003ci\u003eWords in Air\u003c\/i\u003e is the complete correspondence between Bishop and Lowell.
